It was my best friend, Matt.He was now standing in front of Mojerio while his members stood still behind him."Your superiority doesn't give you the liberty to wreck someone nor disturb the peace around here," Matt spoke calmly and firmly yet loud enough that everyone could hear him."And who the hell are you to decide what I can and cannot do?" Mojerio sneered, glancing at me before returning to him. "I suggest that you go back to your place. If you don't, it might be easier for you to suffer."He was staring directly into Matt's eyes— a look of intimidation. He was slightly taller than Matt, but it didn't stop him from trying to get into his face."I won't leave this place because you're insulting my best friend. And I don't tolerate those kinds of words coming out of your mouth," Matt said, full of intrepidity."You little shit! You nuts…" he grabbed Matt by the collar of his hoodie only to be stopped midway through.Holy crap!"No, please!" I yelled loudly.What's more aggravati

"You always belong to me, even if I know you were hiding something. I won't force you to tell me what it was, and I promise you that no one else will be allowed to hurt you."TWO days went out the same way. I stayed in the house, cleaning the room, sleeping, eating, and having a deep talk with Alpha Ace every night, which I enjoyed because I didn't feel bored when he was around.I wanted to go out and see my best friend and my family, but I knew that transgressing Alpha Ace's words would only make things worse.Currently, I was lying on a bed, staring at the ceiling of the bedroom. The door was open, the lights were off, and I could hear faint footsteps coming toward me and stopped by the window where I assumed it was from.Turning around, I saw Mrs. Athena."I'm sorry, Gwen. Did I wake you?"Without skepticism, I sat up straight and faced her. "No, mom Athena. I'm not sleeping."She nodded, then sat beside me. I don't know why she's here, but the moment she held my hands conferred me

"Do you like your best friend?""What kind of question is that?""Just answer me, Gwen.""That was the most frivolous words I've heard, Alpha. Matt is my best friend," I replied with a roll of my eyes."S-so you don't like him?" his eyes glimmered with hope.I shook my head as an indication of no, and he beamed at my answer.There was a sign of solace I could glimpse in his face."So, let's go." I let out a smile and went out of the room, then he quickly followed me.We've been doing heavy training for the past hours and are currently in our wolf form. It seems like we are getting pretty good at fighting side by side with each other. It felt so good to be trained by him. He seemed to understand me better than anyone else, and that's something I appreciate about him, teaching me without degrading me. To put it simply, we were becoming very close than usual.After another hour, the sun grew brighter and started shining on us, and we returned to our human forms.We searched for a suitabl

It was Israel.Scrutinizing the entire surrounding, I hid behind the tree and shifted into a human form before heading toward the area where he was."What happened to you?" he asked worriedly when he noticed my perturbed expression. He looked around to see if jeopardy was moving closer to me.I didn't answer right away since my mind was too occupied recalling the scenario earlier until he insisted on accompanying me back home to make sure that nothing could have happened to me.The whole way through the walk back home, he kept glancing at me now and then in an attempt to read my mind. It's not like I'm not particularly eager to talk to him. Before talking about it, I'm just soothing my entire senses to get rid of my worries for a bit longer than usual. And I could only gather my senses back to reality if I let the silence engulf me first before anything else.*****"So they abducted our son, Rivo! We have to do something!" Mrs. Athena cried as she continued bawling her eyes out. Her h

“Este la vie co mo sua reiz.”That's the phrase penned on a piece of paper that Israel provided me yesterday, and I honestly can't fathom it, no matter how numerous times I read it in my mind. But as I remembered, I could summon him by just articulating it."Este la vie co mo sua reiz," I whispered, then closed my eyes. And when they opened again, there he was; Israel."Holy freak. How did you do that?" I asked with curiosity. "Is that some sort of… you know, magic?"He shook his head slightly but smiled nevertheless. "Not exactly. It's a spell from an old book I learned years ago.""Book? So it took you so long before you memorized it all?" "There are still some things I haven't managed to get right.""I see." I smiled. Silence hung between us like we were waiting for something. I guess neither of us had anything to say at that moment. I'm not confident about how to voice out why I summoned him now. But if there's one thing I need right now, that is him."So, what can I do for you,
